Have you checked if is still possible to have it installed? I have a mixed
3.5/4.2 environment, and I found no conflict that forced me to remove it. It
is in the "obsolete or locally created packages" section in aptitude, but I
have no problems with it, and doesn't have many dependencies.

There is a KDE4-based kuickshow in extragear, and it compiles and starts, but
has some problems. I wanted to help with it, because the problems it has seem
easy to fix, but I haven't found the time. :-(
The author works on it from time to time. I'm happy to see that he did some
changes just 7 days ago, so I'm going to compile it again to see how it has
improved.
If it's kind of usable, and I don't have any problems with dependencies, I
will see if at least I can do a quick and dirty package, although it's been
ages since I did a Debian package, so no promises. :-(

IMHO, is not a equivalent replacement, Gwenview is a much bigger application,
but is an improvement over Gimp. Even Okular it's a possible better
alternative.
